For the reactions system 2H2(g) + S2(g) 2H2S(g), a 1.00-liter vessel is found to contain 0.5 mole of H2 , 0.02 mole of S2, and 68.5 moles of H2S. What is the equilibrium constant expression? What are the chemical formulas, not numbers. (Enter subscripts after the letters: for example, H2O = Hs2O. Also, don't forget to use the proper chemical shorthand for chemical symbols. For instance, chlorine = Cl but not cl or cL.) Please and thank you!! :)
First you calculate the molarity of all components in equilibrium :
Volume = 1.00 liter
For H₂ :
M = n / V
M = 0.5 / 1.00
M = 0,5 mol/L^-1
For S₂ :
M = 0.02 / 1.00
M = 0.02 mol/L^-1
For H₂S :
M = 68.5 / 1.00
M = 68.5 mol/L^-1
the equilibrium constant expression :
Kc = products / reagents
Reagents products
↓ ↓
2 H₂(g) + S₂(g) = 2 H₂S(g)
Kc = [ H₂S ]^2 / [ H₂ ]^2 [ S2 ]
Kc = [ 68.5 ]^2 / [ 0.5 ]^2 [ 0.02 ]
Kc = [ 4692.25] / [ 0.25 ] * [ 0.02 ]
kc = [ 4692.25] / [ 0.005 ]
kc = 988450
hope this helps!
